Today, I have something really exciting to share with you. Nailbox, the online nail polish store, is launching a new quarterly TrendBox subscription and they asked me to curate their very first box!

With a range of boutique and international brands to choose from, I selected four shades that best represent the trends of the Spring/Summer season and I hope you all love them as much as I do!

Nailbox SS ’14 TrendBox

Narrowing down all the gorgeous colors sold on Nailbox to just four was a challenge but these polishes stood out for their on-trend and unique hues and finishes. You can read more about my selections and why I chose them on Nailbox.co.

SS ’14 TrendBox Colors

Face Stockholm Athena – Who doesn’t love a fab holographic polish? I mean, when the sun is shining and those intense rainbows appear on your nails, it’s hard to look away. And trust me when I say that the silver-based Athena is even more prismatic in person. The bonus… the formula is kick ass! No aqua/quick-dry base needed. Just make sure your regular base coat is completely dry.

JINsoon Cool Blue – I seriously can’t get enough of this color, you guys. It’s THE shade of the season. And the chance to get it to you at an amazing price? I couldn’t resist! Even though JINsoon isn’t carried on Nailbox, yet, I HAD to include it for you all. I just put it on my toes last night and, gah, is it gorgeous.

LVX Roux – Is my perfect kind of hot coral creme. It’s the ideal mix of hot pink and red with just a hint of orange. It’s poppy and rich and the formula is spot on. This will definitely be my next pedicure color.

NCLA Mint Condition Candy Coat – Texture is still alive and well but I know that hardcore textures turn a lot of people off. What I love about the Candy Coats is that the texture is pretty minimal. Even more subtle than the PixieDusts. And you can cover it with a glossy top coat and all but eliminate its tactile quality. This mix of metallic gold shimmer and lime green in no way matches its minty name but it’s unique to the world of texture and will look fab with a faux glow.

Wow! This looks great! I’ve been underwhelmed by the nail sub boxes I’ve seen (either the value is not good or the brand is totally unknown). Grabbing me a year sub now GREAT picks for the box you curated. Good brands, great colors, and the value is excellent!

It took me a while to be able to order my Annual TrendBox subscription, but with the help of a really nice person at NailBox, I did it. I got error messages, too. My Visa bank wouldn’t let the transaction go through. They don’t take Discover, my usual on-line shopping card. I saw that they take Paypal, but there wasn’t a link. So I sent an email to the “contact Us” and someone got back to me right away. I was able to use paypal and my 1st box should be sent tomorrow!! So excited.

I guess the bafflingly high price is more of a marketing ploy, or “pricing strategy,” versus a reflection of the actual cost to create the product. And I’m definitely not the part of the “luxury” demographic being targeted! #WhiteTrashArmedWithCoupons

But, really – congratulations! This has to be a super-exciting opportunity! You have a great site, and are basically building an enviable resume with all of the cool things you have done throughout the years. Before long, I bet we’ll all be obsessing over the upcoming ALU collection!

Aww, thanks Lark. You’re so sweet. I get it about the $18 price tag. It’s hard to pull the trigger when there are great brands selling for much less. That’s why I wanted to include JINsoon in the box. To give people a chance to try it for a reduced cost. I love the polish and the colors but it’s a $$$ commitment.

Pretty nail colors indeed especially the mint condition. I have never tried to subscribe to beauty boxes for many said that most of the products in it are disappointing. I rather try goods that are tested by many.

I’m leery of subscription boxes as well. Especially when they cost more than $20. I like the Nailbox concept though because it’s not a house brand of polish. Instead you get established boutique, indie and commercial brands and you know the guaranteed value of the box. It’s a great deal.

Happy first day of Spring!! The days are getting longer, warm weather is just around the corner, and I’m kicking off the weekend with bright spring nails. Can it get any better?

I couldn’t be more thrilled to see one of my favorite accessory designers, Rebecca Minkoff, working with one of my favorite nail polish brands. The Essie Spring 2015 Flowerista collection is the first one Minkoff had a hand in, and I’m already loving this partnership. Bright saturated shades are mixed with more neutral hues for […]
